Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries, fresh or frozen)
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp lemon zest (optional, for added brightness)
- 1 tbsp powdered sugar (optional, for sweetness)
Directions
Step 1
Place the softened cream cheese in a medium mixing bowl.
Step 2
If using frozen berries, allow them to thaw and drain any excess liquid. Chop large berries like strawberries into smaller pieces for easier blending.
Step 3
Add the mixed berries, honey, vanilla extract, and optional lemon zest to the bowl with the cream cheese.
Step 4
Using a hand mixer or wooden spoon, mix until well-combined and smooth. For a chunkier texture, leave some berry pieces intact.
Step 5
Taste the mixture and add powdered sugar if additional sweetness is desired. Mix again to incorporate the sugar evenly.
Step 6
Transfer the spread to a serving dish or airtight container. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 7
Spread generously on toasted bagels, crackers, or use as a dip for fresh fruit, and enjoy!
